Alexandria’s swimming and diving team (7-0 in duals) wrapped up a stretch of five meets in 10 days, and the Cardinals are still undefeated after securing a 108-78 win against Brainerd on Thursday.
Alexandria coaches used the meet as an opportunity to move some athletes around to new events for them. Jisella Haskamp won the 200 freestyle in her first time swimming the event this season. Brooklyn Millward added a win in the 200 IM and 100 butterfly, while Hattie Galloway was first in the 50 freestyle.

Haskamp, Millward, Urke and Galloway won the 200 freestyle relay by more than four seconds. Alaina Guenther, Sidney Johnson, Urke and Galloway came from behind to out-touch the Brainerd 400-freestyle relay and cap off the meet with a win, while the 200-medley group of Johnson, Bugher, Aleah Dokter and Julia Wilmesmeier won to start the meet.
